While this isn't a woodworking question per se, the populace here does have expertise in wood and lumber . . .
The other day my wife and I tried planking some salmon on the grill and it came out pretty nicely. Given that success, we plan to do that again. :) We used these cedar planks that we picked up at the local grocery store. These planks come in a dimension of about
12"Lx6"W and are 1/2" thick for a cost of something in the neighborhood of $4.I got to thinking how Home Depot sells cedar boards and I seem to recall a 1x6x8' is only about $6-$8. So I could definitely get a better price by getting the wood from Home Depot--but would it be safe to cook with? As in, does anyone know definitively if that wood has been treated chemically in any way?
